What are the basic citing guidelines for government documents?
(A) Government publications are written by federal bureaucrats and printed, not published, by the Government Printing Office. Very often these publications will not follow a standard title page arrangement and some publishing elements will be eliminated. However, use the following citation example to find as many elements as possible and arrange them as shown: Example: Author (Agency). Title, edition, statement. Place of publication: Publisher. (Series elements). (Notes). [If including Superintendent of Documents number, enter in notes] Date.
